Banglumpoo Place was a reliable home base for us during a quick three-day stay in Bangkok. The neighborhood is great if you're looking to experience "old Bangkok" (not so much the nightlife/partying side, which was fine with us), and we loved the plentiful street food and local markets. The hotel is also walking distance to the major temples and attractions, and though not close to public transit, it is a short walk from the river ferry and we never had trouble catching taxis and tuk-tuks. The room was as advertised - basic, clean, and with all the necessary amenities. Bed was firm but comfortable. Front desk reception was available 24/7 and offered to store our luggage after check out on our last day. Our only two complaints were the smell (it seemed as though our room was right above the sewage tank) and the lack of a shower curtain in the bathroom (the shower was right next to the toilet). Otherwise we would definitely recommend to other budget travelers.
